Unity Sand Ceremony Sets
Blended Families Come Together in a Sand Unity Ceremony
In today’s world, divorce is unfortunately a rising statistic. In fact, nearly one-third of all Americans are currently part of a blended family. So, for most bride and groom pairs bringing their families together, there’s a unique obligation to make it special.
Naturally, you will want to include your children in the ceremony; so, that they will feel like a valuable part of the union right from the start. One great way to do this is with a sand unity ceremony.
Traditionally, the couple lights a central pillar candle from two taper candles, which are lit by representatives of each party’s family at the beginning of the ceremony. This lighting can be accompanied by a blessing, vows, or can be done on its own. As timeless and elegant as this tradition is, though, it leaves no room for members of a blended family.
The sand unity ceremony is a beautiful way to incorporate any children or other family members that you want to include in your ceremony. The concept is similar to that of the unity candle ceremony, but much more inclusive for blended families. Each party is given a small vase of different-colored sand, which is then poured into a larger vase, symbolizing the coming-together of your families. After the ceremony, the vase can be placed in the home as a reminder of your special day.
Not only is the sand unity ceremony a great way to bring together your blended family, it can also be a very personal part of your wedding day. Your unity vase can be engraved with your names, monogram, or other message. In addition, your choice of sand colors can reflect your wedding colors, home décor, or any other significant part of your life. Not only will you have a gorgeous keepsake from your wedding day, you’ll also have the pleasure of knowing that the important members of your family were all included in your special day.

As these two containers of sand are poured into the third container, the individual containers of sand will no longer exist, but will be joined together as one. Just as these grains of sand can never be separated and poured again into the individual containers, so will your marriage be
